I disagree. I think only the Founders should remain on our money - and that includes getting Lincoln, JFK, FDR, and Grant off of our money and replace them with John Jay, John Adams, Samuel Adams, and Crispus Attucks.

The Founders I'm afraid would be appalled by your suggestion. They wanted a nation of laws, not of men. And that is why they eschewed political figures on the money in favor of symbols of liberty and freedom and the occasional Indian or Buffalo.
